Love is a Pretty Great Thing

For most of my life, Valentine's Day has just been another day in my life. And in many ways, it still is. The most exciting thing that happened this year is that my mom bought me chocolate and a mug, and fixed my coffee just the way I like it (and really, who needs more than that?!). I usually try to just ignore the commercialism that surrounds the holiday. But leave it to my baby sister to remind me in the simplest way possible that love is always worth celebrating, whether you're in a romantic relationship or not.

"I know Valentine's Day is generally just 'singles awareness day' for us (at least it has been for years) but this is still a special day. Because I love you. And let's be real... whether romantic or not, love is a pretty great thing. Happy Valentine's Day... You are dearly loved!"

Nothing fancy. No crazy deep moment. But profound nonetheless. So happy Valentine's Day y'all.... Choose love <3
